Update: I put a TP-Link wireless router downstream of it ( with routing functionality disabled in the TP-Link, so essentially my TP-Link is a switch with antennas or an access point ). Raspberries started working fine, even ping -f loses no packets. Seems to be a compatibility issue with these Cisco...

cpunk

Wow, this is exactly like my situation (thread over here ). I have an "EPC3940ADL EuroDocsis 3.0 2-PORT Voice Gateway" acting as my router, and I experienced packet losses of approximately 40%. Static IP didn't help. Disabling IPv6 didn't help. I presume the ethernet interfaces try to reach gigabit ...

cpunk

Until now, I have found no cure for this.

I switched over to WiFi however and left the Ethernet cables unconnected. Now, packet loss is 0%, but it's WiFi... it's not a long term solution for me. Will try to find a known-good gigabit switch to test with.

cpunk

P.S. I also get big packet loss when I bring up a WiFi interface on a Pi and then try to ping it from my laptop on the same LAN. Pinging the router has 0% packet loss, pinging the Pi has 40%.

Ping times are around 2 ms in both cases.

cpunk

So I had 3 separate Pi3 computers on a LAN made of Cat5 Ethernet cables and a home router. One was a WWW server, another an API server, third one a DB server. I upgraded them to Pi4 and now I observe great packet loss, extending up to 40% of pings. All three exhibit this effect. SSH barely works but...

Thank you, everyone who wrote tips before. :) They were helpful. I recently purchased one of the 10.1 inch 1024x600 pixel resistive touch screen displays from Waveshare. My recipe for making it work was the following: -------------------- add to /boot/config.txt-------------------- # Enable XPT2046 ...

cpunk

So I bought one for testing. They don't provide a driver. Instead they write: > "We do NOT support screen driver to be installed on existing OS on your Pi." I wonder how clueless can a manufacturer be? For what it's worth, the kernel or disk image they supply might contain dragons and elves, spyware...

If nothing else worked, maybe you could: - tell netcat to use UDP transfer instead of TCP? - use socat instead of netcat? - modify "raspivid" to have dual outputs, one being "udp://" (it already supports that) and the other being a file? - or alternatively, write a "tee" like program yourself, conta...

cpunk

Thank you for publishing such interesting results. :) My line following drone failed in competition, partly due to last-minute reconfiguration issues and partly because of time lost due to repairs after a mid-air collision with another team's drone (happy-go-lucky judges allowed two teams on the fie...

cpunk

To get gesture information, you might ask the "raspivid" command to output motion vectors from the video encoding process (there are other possibilities too). If you pick that route, you can do that with the -x command line option. The output will be one motion vector per each 16 x 16 pixel macroblo...

P.S. For entertainment only... a test run that recognizes distinct areas and color-codes them. :) No longer a bug report... just getting close to something functional. :)

cpunk

I can no longer recreate the bug when I work with the methods you recommended. :) But, I can show the advantages of manually adjusted settings over automatic settings, though. :) Here are 3 videos: - tiny video... - the yellow bar is an artifact from a different task entirely, plz ignore... - the bl...

cpunk

Thanks for the really useful critique and explanation. :) I knew I had *some* contradictory arguments in that command line, but I didn't know I had so _many_. :) I'll try to narrow them down to the bare minimum needed, and see if I still encounter oddities or if they disappear - and I'll make use of...

It's getting more and more complicated. :D I hereby (almost) promise to figure it out and make sense of it later, after the contest (on Nov 25). I was thinking that all was fine. Then I noticed instabilty in the robot's vision. I started investigating the fishy frames. I understood that either their...

cpunk

Sadly, for the time being, the bug defeated me. Since I'm preparing a robot for competition, I had to go around it - and my video pipeline script has transformed too, it now reads as below, and the problem doesn't happen: raspivid -sh 0 -sa -100 -br 70 -co 10 -fl -n -t 0 \ -w $1 -h $2 -b 400000 -fps...

cpunk

Update: After upgrading all components and rewriting my homebrew "raspivid" command to totally exclude status messages polluting the "stderr" stream when it's being used for motion vectors, I was able to collect sample video. :) The better screenshot is from the TCP stream, the totally useless one f...

cpunk

It should be possible with reasonable amounts of coding. The basic problem seems to be "how to obtain a video feed as input, decode it to a form we can modifiy (such as RGB) and then draw "sprites" on top of the feed, and display it in a smooth enough manner?". I've personally done it many times in ...

cpunk

Additional notes: - passing all ("-ex off", "-awb off" and AWB gains) --> somehow visibly altered motion vectors, tiny unreadable video file - omitting "-ex off", omitting "-awb off" and passing AWB gains --> correct behaviour - omitting "-ex off", passing "-awb off", and omitting AWB gains --> no m...

cpunk

My first observation would be that I'm a bit silly. I'm passing the -f or "fullscreen" argument to a command that has no screen to draw on, and the -l or "listen" argument to a command that is outputting to a file... ...but removing those bits of my sillyness doesn't make the problem disappear... in...

cpunk

I will make my best attempt to solve this problem myself, since it would likely take others a long while to even recreate the conditions exactly... but since it is such an interesting problem for me, I want to also document what I saw, hence I'm opening this thread here. :) I'm working with my home-...

I got them. :) And thanks to a recommendation from a friend, I also found an ideal solution for the filling valve. :) I used part of a long-necked plastic energy drink bottle, neutral construction silicone and electrical tape. Recipe: - cut off bottle neck - make it smooth, wrap cutting line in two ...

So I tested them, with as much time I had. I needed to get a Scanse Sweep rotating lidar working, and get it working soon... ...I wrote the initial code for jSerialComm and it worked on my laptop. On a Pi 0W unit, it mysteriously did nothing, with no error messages whatsoever. The port opened, but n...

An idea about where to get cheap balloons: "BWS Zeppelinballon" or "GL-500"... apparently made of latex and very big. No idea about lift, still waiting for my first parcel. But quite cheap.

Thanks for the explanations. :) I was not intending to ask, but it was enlightening anyway. And sure enough, I understand that having one's camera design copied and then distributed at a significantly undercut price (because there were no design expenses) wouldn't be fair. I personally like designs ...

Another RxTx user here, and thanks for the tip. Will try the alternative in my next project. :)

My personal experience is that it works better with OpenJDK JVM, as opposed the Oracle JVM. Probably another of those library loading issues. Most likely quite solvable, but needs lots of trying.
